Implication

May explain thiazide synergy with ganglioplegics via volume depletion; leaves open relevance to modern regimens.

Structured PICO

What is the mechanism by which chlorothiazide enhances the effectiveness of antihypertensive ganglioplegic drugs?

P
Population
Subjects with chronic arterial hypertension
I
Intervention
Chlorothiazide in combination with antihypertensive ganglioplegic drugs
O
Outcome
Physiological mechanisms of blood pressure regulation (plasma volume, heart size, cardiac output, vasomotor tone)surrogate

Chlorothiazide enhances the efficacy of ganglioplegic antihypertensives through volume depletion and subsequent stimulation of vasomotor tone.
